1970 Map of Morton SW

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The High Plains landscape of Cochran County is defined here by the extensive industrial footprints of the Buckshot Oil Field and the Levelland and Slaughter Oil and Gas Field. These energy developments are etched across the terrain alongside the natural path of Sulphur Draw, which meanders through the central portion of the map. The spatial arrangement reveals a late-century intersection of ranching traditions and petroleum extraction, centered on the Masten Ranch near the center of the sheet.
